| talar sulcus | The groove on the inferior surface of the talus, which with a corresponding groove on the calcaneus forms the sinus tarsi. Synonym: sulcus tali, interosseous groove, talar sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| terminal sulcus | Sulcus terminalis linguae; a V-shaped groove, with apex pointing backward, on the surface of the tongue, marking the separation between the oral, or horizontal, and the pharyngeal, or vertical, parts, sulcus terminalis atrii dextri; a groove on the surface of the right atrium of the heart, marking the junction of the primitive sinus venosus with the atrium. Synonym: terminal sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tonsillolingual sulcus | The space between the palatine tonsil and the tongue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transverse occipital sulcus | The posterior, vertical limb of the intraparietal sulcus. Synonym: sulcus occipitalis transversus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Turner's sulcus | A horizontal sulcus extending back from the postcentral sulcus over some distance, then dividing perpendicularly into two branches so as to form, with the postcentral sulcus, a figure H. It divides the parietal lobe into superior and inferior parietal lobules. Synonym: sulcus intraparietalis, interparietal sulcus, intraparietal sulcus of Turner, Turner's sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| external spiral sulcus | A concavity in the outer wall of the cochlear duct between the prominentia spiralis and the spiral organ. Synonym: sulcus spiralis externus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fimbriodentate sulcus | A shallow groove between the fimbria and the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. Synonym: sulcus fimbriodentatus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| labial sulcus | A furrow between the developing lip and gum. Synonym: labiodental sulcus, lip sulcus, primary labial groove. (05 Mar 2000) |
| labiodental sulcus | A furrow between the developing lip and gum. Synonym: labiodental sulcus, lip sulcus, primary labial groove. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral cerebral sulcus | The deepest and most prominent of the cortical fissures, extending from the anterior perforated substance first laterally at the deep incisure between the frontal and temporal lobes, then back and slightly upward over the lateral aspect of the cerebral hemisphere, with the superior temporal gyrus as its lower bank, the insula forming its greatly expanded floor. Two short side branches, the ramus anterior and ramus ascendens, divide the inferior frontal gyrus into an orbital part, triangular part, and opercular part. Synonym: sulcus lateralis cerebri, fissura cerebri lateralis, lateral cerebral fissure, sylvian fissure, fissure of Sylvius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral occipital sulcus | One of several variable sulci on the lateral aspect of the occipital lobe of each cerebral hemisphere, bounding the lateral occipital convolutions. Synonym: sulcus occipitalis lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| limiting sulcus | The medial longitudinal groove on the inner surface of the neural tube separating the alar and basal plates. Synonym: sulcus limitans. (05 Mar 2000) |
| limiting sulcus of Reil | A saemicircular fissure demarcating the insula from the opercula above, below, and behind. Synonym: sulcus circularis insulae, circular sulcus of Reil, limiting sulcus of Reil. (05 Mar 2000) |
| limiting sulcus of rhomboid fossa | A lateral groove running the whole length of the floor of the rhomboid fossa on either side of the midline, representing the remains of the sulcus demarcating the alar (dorsal) from the basal (ventral) plate of the embryonic rhombencephalon. Synonym: sulcus limitans fossae rhomboideae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lip sulcus | A furrow between the developing lip and gum. Synonym: labiodental sulcus, lip sulcus, primary labial groove. (05 Mar 2000) |
